Default 2011 Grand Sport AC not working

I have a 2011 Grand Sport 6MT with 17,000 miles. The AC just stopped working a few days ago and now it will only blow ambient temperature air. This seems to occur driver/passenger and no matter how low I set the AC temp. I have tested it with auto and manual fan speed. The compressor still seems to be spinning and working. I have not tested pressures but I assume that would be my next step. Any help is appreciated!

I've noticed mine doing this randomly, and also sticking on floor only no matter what button I push. If i turn the a/c completely off and wait about 1 minute before turning it back on, it works as it should. Also note, this only happens after I've been driving the car, it's parked/shut off for more than 20 min, then I start to drive it again.

I would have your ac system checked. You might have a Freon leak somewhere.

Believe it or not, check the connector at the compressor. I just had mine go out and someone suggested that. I wiggled it sure enough....that's all it was. Free too

Buy a recharge kit, follow the directions, and give it a go.

I lost a low side compressor switch on my 11 at about 20k, but that stopped the compressor from running.
